How Much will it Cost to Run my Light?

Depending on where you live the average cost of running a 1K light 12/12 is about $20-$30 a month in electricity.

Use the Power Consumption Cost Calculator to find the actual cost.

Lol it is seriously not a good idea to run light. Thats how the cops catch you. You need natural sunlight, but like a greenhouse type thing? Where no one will go too ect. :)

Re: How Much will it Cost to Run my Light?

Fighting temps outdoor at triple digits is a big increase over cool temps usually about to the tune of $300 and thats at $0.139 per KLW hr that will keep temps in proper range for me and the Gs....

Re: How Much will it Cost to Run my Light?

One 1kw light (or ten 100w lites) uses roughly 1 kwh of energy. That dosen't change. What changes is what you pay for each kwh. If you have low rates you pay less than us with higher rates......

Kwh rates run from as low as 6 cents per kwh (avg) in Wyoming to as high as almost 19 cents per kwh (avg) in Hawaii. The national avg is 9.8 cents per kwh.
